Abstract: A laser diode package having an optical power
monitoring function includes a monitor diode (12) for
monitoring an optical power of the light emitted from a
laser diode (11). In the laser diode package, an optical
member (15) has a projection window for advancing the
light emitted from the laser diode (11) to a desired
direction and a reflection surface (17) from which the
light emitted from the laser diode (11) is reflected. The
monitor diode (12) receives the light reflected from the
reflection surface of the optical member in order to
monitor an optical power of the light emitted from the
laser diode (11). A slot (20) is installed on an area
except for an optical path which is formed by the light
projected via the projection window of the optical member,
for shielding ambient light. Thus, the laser diode
package having an optical power monitoring function
prevents a mis-operation of the monitor diode (12) due to
the ambient light.

Abstract: An optical pickup apparatus having compatibility with
a recordable compact disk (CD-R) and a digital video disk
(DVD) uses one of a first light (31) and a second light
(40) according to a recording medium (8, 9) to be used.
In the optical pickup apparatus, laser light sources (31,
40) emit first light having a relatively shorter
wavelength for the DVD (8) and second light having longer
wavelength for the CD-R (9), respectively. An objective
lens (37) has a predetermined focal length in accordance
with the position of an information recording surface in
the DVD (8). An optical path control unit (32-35)
controls the path of lights (31, 40) so that the light
emitted from one of the laser light sources is directed to
the objective lens (37) and the light output from the
objective lens (37) is directed to said optical detection
unit (39). A phase shift unit (38) which is located
between the optical path control unit (32-35) and the
objective lens (37), shifts the phase of the second light
proceeding from said optical path control unit (32-35) to
the objective lens (37), to thereby reduce the size of a
beam spot which is formed on the position of the
information recording surface in the CD-R (9).

Abstract: The method involves first performing measurements on a real vehicle to gain measurement values relating to the vehicle performance. A continuous check is made to determine whether prescribed trigger conditions, i.e. constellations of specific measurement values are fulfilled. If these conditions are met at least an assessment parameter (Dr) is calculated, which expresses the driveability of the vehicle, from one or more measurements based on a preset function and recording the assessment parameter. The function to derive the assessment value can be generated by statistical means from evidence provided by test personnel regarding the driveability and performance of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method is proposed for processing transitional
regions in a picture signal. The picture signal comprises
a sequence of digital pixel values. A number of adjacent
pixel values (Y04, Y10 - Y18, Y24; C00 - C08), which
contains a processing pixel value (Y14, C04), are
combined to form a processing block. A corrected pixel
value (YER, CTI0) is calculated for the processing pixel
value. To this end, the maximum and minimum pixel values
(Y6, Y0; C4, C0) are first of all determined in the
processing block, in order to define the transitional
region. The transitional region is then split into a
number of sections on the basis of the magnitude of pixel
value. Finally, a determination is made as to the section
in which the processing pixel value is located. The
processing pixel value (Y14, C04) is then allocated a
corresponding correction value in order to increase, to
reduce or to leave unchanged the processing pixel value,
in accordance with a predetermined transfer function
(11). The method is explained, in particular, on the
basis of an example for picture signal edge correction
and for improving colour transitions in a video picture.
